What a beautiful day I'm the king of all time
Nothing is impossible in my own powerful mind.
1st verse
Was on the fifth of November
When time, it went back,
Well some would say that that's impossible
But you and I have never looked back.
And wasn't it incredible
Oh so beautiful and above all
Oh just to see the fuse get lit this time
And light a real bonfire for all time.
Chords at this point are Fm, C#m, D, E, and F#m.
On the CD, Jon plays the melody on his fiddle over the top of these chords.
2nd verse
(Same chords as first verse)
I was drinking in a night club
It felt good to be back
When Hepburn said "I love you"
And Flynn said "Make mine a double Jack"
Was then we planned a revolution
To make things better for all time
When Guevara said "That's crazy"
And ordered up a bottle of wine.
In there on the big screen
Evr'y night I've seen
The way all things could be, oh for me, oh for me, for me, for me.
3rd verse
The news broke after midnight
And we pulled the temples down without a sound
But the generals they were hiding out
The ministers well........
They'd all gone to ground
Wealth redistribution
Became the new solution
So I got the paperbag
And ypu got the one with all the holes.
At end of chorus comes this:
Oh yeah and nothing is impossible in my own powerful mind
